Newcastle United have entered the race with Arsenal, Southampton, Manchester United and Leeds United to get Goncalo Ramos’ transfer.
The Premier League sides are all closely monitoring the Benfica star’s situation who was enjoying his first World Cup with Portugal.
Gomes scored the first hat-trick of the competition in Qatar against Switzerland, after starting the game over the superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 21-year-old caught attention with his impressive performance as his three goals helped his side to advance to the quarterfinals. However, Seleção das Quinas failed to break Morocco’s solid defensive wall which led them to a painful elimination on December 10.
According to journalist Dean Jones, the forward could make a move from Benfica soon despite his big release clause.
“While man-of-the-moment Goncalo Ramos looks a golden ticket that could move anywhere from Benfica – but he has a big release clause and holds more value than ever. Look out for interest from Leeds, Southampton and Wolves but also Newcastle, Arsenal and Man United.” told Jones to GiveMeSport.
